PCV Valve Missing!!! Not Sure Where Hose Is!!! HELP!!!!

[psycho_freke]

I have determined, after looking at this picture, that my PCV valve is missing entirely!!! I have no idea where the other end of the hose goes and haven't been able to find any pics of the stock setup showing the other end of the hose after 30 minutes of searching. I want to see if maybe the hose is still floating around in there somewhere, and if it's not, I need to find out where the hose goes so that when I buy hose for this thing, I know where to connect it! FYI.. This is not my pic. I found it on the net.

the piece in the guys hand goes in the breather box then a hose hooks to it and run up to the intake manifold the end of the hose is like a grommet and pops into the hole in the bottom of the intake manifold and the pcv valve goes in there and then the hose runs to the valve cover

So... The hose from the PCV valve runs to the intake manifold? Or the valve cover? I'm sorry, that wasn't very clear.

Update: Here is a pic of mine

if that helps

That doesn't look like it's gonna be that ez to get to from the top. And yes, it helps a lot, although those manifolds don't look quite the same as mine. If it's the port I'm looking at though, then there is a peice of closed off hose there, like it was put there to plug the hole....

yea no prob:..

Could this be the cause of me losing oil?

those pictures are for an LS intake manifold. if you reach under the intake manifold, feel around until you hit a large vacuum port that has a cap on it (it must have or the car would be running like ****) that is where the PCV hose connects to. go to autozone, pick up the PCV valve and 6-10 inches of hose that fits it. 3/8" if i remember right, not sure on that. put the PCV valve in the hole on the breather box, remove said vacuum cap, connect hose. your done.


and yes i could see that being a way to lose oil. try that and let me know how it goes.

Cool! I figured that was the right hole but I wanted to be 100% certain before I started hooking up hoses to the wrong places. Yes, it has a cap on it also. Thanks for everything! I hope this fixes my problem with losing oil!

I used 9/32" hose because they didn't have 3/8". Put some hose clamps on it, took me about 30-45 mins!!! Wasn't really that hard, but I have small hands! Now I'll just keep an eye on the oil level and see what happens! Thanks for everybody's help!
